About the event
Each session is 3 hours and consists of one pose. Portrait painting or drawing from life offers immense value beyond mere representation. It serves as a profound exploration of human connection and expression. By observing and interpreting real-life subjects, artists hone their observational skills, capturing nuances of emotion, personality, and character. This practice fosters empathy and understanding as artists delve into the complexities of individuality. Additionally, painting or drawing from life encourages technical mastery as artists grapple with light, shadow, and form in real time. Ultimately, portrait art becomes a timeless reflection of humanity, offering insight, beauty, and a celebration of the human spirit.
